My Project

This project will support my students with an opportunity to read for pleasure by choosing any two books to read and get a chance to vote on their favorite book..

The students will vote for their favorite in a State Reader's Choice program.These books were selected by a group of teenagers in the state.

Therefore, most of these selections will be interesting to my students.

The students can find out what is interesting to other students their own age and from different areas of the state.

This will make a difference in our students ability to read fluently.
